Performing Patching Using Oracle FPP Local Mode

Use this procedure to patch Oracle Grid Infrastructure and Oracle Database using Oracle Fleet Patching and Provisioning (Oracle FPP) Local Mode.

Note:

Oracle FPP Local Mode supports only one patching operation at a time. Wait for the current operation to finish before running another patch operation.

Deploy an Oracle Grid Infrastructure home using Oracle FPP Local Mode.
```
$ rhpctl deploy home -path /u01/app/23.6.0/grid -zip /tmp/images/grid_home.zip
```
Switch from the old Oracle Grid Infrastructure home to the new Oracle Grid Infrastructure home using Oracle FPP Local Mode.
```
$ rhpctl move gihome -desthome /u01/app/23.6.0/grid –sourcehome /u01/app/23.0.0/grid
```
Note:
- During Oracle FPP Local Mode patching, you must run the patching command only on one node. The patching completes automatically on all other nodes.
- If any command fails in the first run, then you must re-run the command from the same node where it was started initially.

Deploy an Oracle Database home using Oracle FPP Local Mode.

$ rhpctl deploy home -path /u01/app/oracle/product/23.6.0/dbhome_1 -zip /tmp/images/db_home.zip -sourcehome /u01/app/oracle/product/23.0.0/dbhome_1

Switch from the old Oracle Database home to the new Oracle Database home using Oracle FPP Local Mode.
```
$ rhpctl move database -desthome /u01/app/oracle/product/23.6.0/dbhome_1 –sourcehome /u01/app/oracle/product/23.0.0/dbhome_1
```
If the patching fails or you want to switch back to the old Oracle Grid Infrastructure home, then run the following command, from the destination home as the grid user, to rollback the patch.
```
$ rhpctl move gihome -desthome /u01/app/23.0.0/grid –sourcehome /u01/app/23.6.0/grid
```
